The CUT Taunts of Super Smash Bros Ultimate
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 бер 2024
- One of the easiest ways to make your opponent angry in super smash bros ultimate is to hit them with a taunt. A lot of these are fun little animations that are used to give your character more personality. Everyone in ultimate has 3, however over the course of the smash series several taunts have been changed or even cut entirely. So today I’m looking at smash 64, melee, brawl, and smash 4 to see which taunts were changed or cut in ultimate and if they are better or worse than what we have now!

Hello
It's alright. I hope you got better.
Skill issue
(I am legally required to state that this is a joke.)
Entirely offtopic but I played the prologue of Fire Emblem Awakening and Chrom dies in the first 3 minutes and it made me laugh
No worries! Health before anything and everything, and it was only a one day difference.
The worst cut in my opinion is Sonic's "You're too slow!" Taunt. Yeah, the voice line was changed, but "Sonic Speed!" Isn't really a taunt, just him saying something. The "You're too slow!" taunt is actually a taunt, like peaches singing taunt.
big missed opportunity to have sonic be the only character to be able to taunt in the air though
like imagine the Sonic Adventure cover art pose as a taunt, that’d be amazing
@@teaoftrafficTrue. Wario gets a taunt on his bike, why not sonic in the air?
Everybody should agree
i wish they had roger record new voices, the reuse of voice clips really doesn't work
@@dayzlove4994I guess I'm not everybody.
You’re to slow is one of the most toxic things to hear in a brawl battle
I got kicked in the face because of it 😂
They probably removed it cuz they knew people would smash everything around them 😂
As a Sonic main, I love it
I agree I use to throw my controller everytime I heard it
@@skittle6307dang, you ok😅😅
Can't believe they cut your mother from this game. Truly heartbreaking
Sad
Good joke BTW xd
They took too much processing power.
Ridley got in after being called too big, so there's still hope!
She’s too big for smash 😭
Incineroar proved there could be slow characters, so your mom (who took 9 months to make a joke) still has a good chance!
My favorite about Mario's previous neutral taunt is that if you played on special smash, made the characters big, give Mario a mushroom and perform the taunt, he'd get absolutely massive
I was sadly a 3DS Smash loser so I had no Special Smash :(
I never owned a Wii U (though honestly I’m not too sad over it - most of the games I would have played have sequels or ports on the Switch)
the biggest mario could get was special smash big modifier, lightning bolt misfire (big variant), and mario up taunt. i remember in the brawl days i would try to make mario as big as possible, so we did exactly that
Mega Mario in Smash
It was the first taunt I tried when I bought the game this year.
Was let down about Mario's taunt being removed.
@@mehsayoriwe all tried that one day lol
I still don’t understand why CPUs don’t taunt anymore, especially Luigi who has the best taunt in the game
They have no emotion
Probably just to make the fact Figure Players can more funny
they sometimes do though
I think so people wouldn't get -salty- mad about them anymore
They do still taunt in SSBU but it's rare.
"You're too slow" and "C'mon step it up" are PEAK disrespect and I'll forever be mad that they became so lame in Smash 4 onwards.
Also I've seen people say that Charizard's up taunt is supposed to be the same pose as his Pokemon Yellow sprite, and I can kinda see it.
Eh, I don't know. I really like "Sonic Speed!".
@@toumabyakuyame too.
@@toumabyakuya it's fine, but it doesn't feel like a taunt.
@@TheRegularHedgehog575 Eh? Why not? It has a similar meaning to "The fight is on!".
@toumabyakuya I see what you mean, but "you're too slow" and "c'mon, step it up" feel alot more like taunts but that's imo
“In Smash Ultimate, every single character gets three taunts. Except Wario who gets four.”
Snake: cries
TECHNICALLY, he does have different taunts (he gets in the box in different ways) 🤓
@@hoyquarlow6908 I never noticed that , wow ❤️
@@hoyquarlow6908 also him removing the box has different timings as well!
@@hoyquarlow6908 I always found Snake's taunts lame, but I get that his box is iconic and they can't add him smoking.
But I agree with a friend (who knows more about MGS than me) that his other taunts should of been his assistants cheering him on from his codec
@@SoniMarSponge "Looking cool, Joker!"
Mario's taunt where he takes his hat off (pre-ultimate) is most likely a reference to the New Super Mario Bros series, where Mario takes his hat off at the end of a level, before putting it back on and heading into the castle.
Oh yeah! Mario time!
That fits into the “he takes his hat off a lot” category
Old wolf voice line: Reeeoooooooowwwwwp 😈👺👺👹
New wolf voice line: auuugh 🤓🤓💅
Personally I love the gay wolf, definitely feels like a taunt (maybe not of the opponent tho)
Brawl players had an unofficial rule that you had to howl every time you launched someone.
old man wolf
I hate it. They made so many characters lose their cool by doin' this to 'em.
"Every single character gets three unique taunts, except for Wario, he gets four."
Dedede: *Laughs in crouch animation*
The Sonic section doesn't mention the very direct reasoning that he not only got a new voice actor (going from Jason Griffith to Roger Craig Smith) but also that Roger Craig Smith is a union voice actor and that Smash Bros. is a non-union product, with this leading to multiple characters from Kid Icarus being recast and Pit's voice staying the same but uncredited.
The only option they had for Sonic was reusing old voice lines recorded for Sonic games, and since Sonic never said "You're too slow!" outside of Brawl, there was no way to keep it.
A notable example of them reusing a voiceline is his Final Smash line being taken from the cutscene before the final boss in Sonic Generations.
Based Roger Craig Smith
W-we get it man, you’re a Sonic fan
out of curiosity, what does union and non-union mean in this context?
@tinyclover3849 I wish I knew but that's apparently why Cloud and Sephiroth still have their Japanese voices as well
He does say "You're too slow" in an episode of Sonic Boom
12:10
Using this taunt when sending someone off the side blast zone activates the villain chemicals in my brain
16:25 Fun Fact: In case if you didn’t know, this taunt is based on Game & Watch Mario Bros which when this happens when if you get 8 bottles on the truck, it shows a little cutscene where Mario & Luigi are panting on the ground.
14:50 the reason for Cloud and Sephiroth not having dubbed voices is actually because of issues with their voice actors being union actors.
Meanwhile, Jason Griffith was just credited under an alias in Brawl for the exact same reason.
"Issues" as in big companies hate paying people what they are worth
Then the Remake happened and the VAs changed. Cody and the other guy are also still union, right?
The shorter Kirby taunt also has the upside of allowing Kirby to get rid of his copied ability faster, so it actually has a Gameplay use!
Mario's old side taunt was based off the victory pose in the New Super Mario Bros Games. Surprised you didn't notice.
Because he’s a dingdong not smart person
Because he’s a ding dong not smart person
5:53 “why I oughtta” type ahh wave
19:34
Bro I wish they brought “You’re too slow!” back!
"You're too slow!" is such an iconic line. I can't believe they cut it.
8:17
“Pikachu’s side taunt has had a pretty big evolution through the years”.
I GET THE JOKE GUYS!!!!!
3:15 New Super Mario Bros series: "Am I a joke to you?"
Amen!
15:06 he says “Everyone, eyes on me!” It’s iconic in the FE fandom
I actually said that to a foreign exchange student from Japan once in our senior year, and he actually translated it 😂
@@linhardtvonhevring7262I’m surprised you said it well enough for him to understand it
marth's original japanese line actually translates well to what he says in ultimate. The down taunt in brawl and 4 roughly translates to "everyone, eyes on me," and "keep your eyes open" is close enough - although i wish he'd shout "eyes on me!" instead.
Yuri Lowenthal is also a _perfect_ voice actor for marth, and i am beyond satisfied with the choice.
I'm gonna edit this as I watch because i love taunts.
Sonic's side taunt originally saying "you're too slow!" is the most in-character taunt in the series. Even if the devs wanted taunts to he shorter and cancelable, the line's short enough that it works. I _cannot_ think of a reason to switch it for a worse taunt. Sonic's side taunt is similar, but the line in brawl is long - so instead of "come on, step it up!" just chsnge it to "step it up!" or some variation of the phrase.
22:18 I dont know why this cracked me so hard
That kinda shit makes me love this channel
4:09 This "taunt" is based on the way Link puts his hand on his hip and leans back when he talks to NPCs in OOT
Mario's old side taunt is actually nearly identical to his animation in New Super Mario Bros when he reaches the flagpole. Idk if it's actually directly based on that, but it's pretty dang close
I have an idea to re-implement the Mario Grow Up taunt.
Have him crouch down to make him look like small Mario, then he’ll pretend he’s growing until he gets on his tippy toes with his fist up, to reference his jumping pose.
3:56 okay don’t know why, but the “eh” combined with the quiet voice “Idle animation looking.” Delivery is just so freaking hilarious! I don’t know why but it’s just too good and perfect!
Most of these were cut because they messed with the hitbox of the character.
calling pikachu "the rat" hit in a hilarious way
I miss Brawl Falco with his New Yorker accent. It's not AI as that literally didn't exist back then but ripping the files shows that it's cut up kinda like Ultimate Pikachu but it's way less noticable. Like you can tell they cut a few samples out of "Personally, I prefer the air!" in Brawl for example. What most likely happened was that the original takes were too slow and so they were all edited to fit the animations better.
Is this why Falco has this accent in the fanmade "A Fox in Space" series or did he always have it at one point?
He knows it isn’t but it really does sound like ai
Giga Bowser: “I’m the largest character in the game!”
Mario: *Mushroom + up taunt*
Man i miss the mario grow taunt
Bro those derpy ghosts that were ment to be blinky and pinky caught me of guard.💀

@@eurybiaball63 ?
Ganon used to laugh like Homer Simpson. 16:05
Awww link, can I just rule Hyrule for the weekend?
ill never get over how little bayonetta fits into smash and it hits like a flashbang whenever she shows up.
Funnily enough, ALBW Zelda really didn't show much of the personality that Smash gave her. She was a little more serious.
If anything, it fits the Spirit Tracks or Minish Cap Zeldas more.
Funnily enough that's not actually LBW Zelda, that's a non-specific Zelda made entirely for Ultimate, mixing traits of several different incarnations.
@@Thornbloom If that's the case, I actually really love that. It means she's the most unique of the Zelda characters.
Sheik also being somewhat unique because she's specifically wearing BotW Sheikah garb when she was never in that game; Link was able to wear it though.
She getswthe phantom, of course she's Spirit Tracks Zelda
@@SinNun-tx5jp Th Phantom itself originated from a different Zelda, not this one lol.
Dr. Mario’s “bad” taunt mimics the motion of stomping out a cigarette which is basically him calling you hot garbage
14:00 No it isnt just you he sounds like a TTS bot
falco with autotune‼️
Marth's down taunt before ultimate is "みんな見てくれ" (pronounced "Min'na mitekure")
It is roughly translated to "Everyone please look"
funny how he went from telling his friends to watch over him, to telling his foe to do so as a threat lol
I really miss Terry’s cut taunts 😭
I really miss Steve’s meat victory screen 😭
Good video, and hope you feel better soon Odyssey.
13:46 hands off my
🎲
Prey
This video was fun. I played a lot of pichu back in melee, and I never noticed how his taunts changed depending on which way he was facing. Thanks for the random fact.
Kirby's new up-taunt references Kirby in Super Star when he discards a copy ability, and it is the fastest way to discard a copy ability in Ultimate as well.
Luigi: I have'a a taunt that can actually hit you!
Kazuya: *話にならんな*
Marth's down taunt line, when translated, roughly comes out to "Everyone, watch me."
What I would suggest for game and watches 2 similar taunts is to combine them into 1 taunt, you can already do that by spam swatching 1 taunt into the other. Then we can have a new one or the cute hop back.
At 12:57, Captain Falcon isn't the only one that his taunts slightly change with the direction he's facing, it's also the case for Corrin, and maybe other characters
The editing is top tier 😂 subscribed
19:14 Now It's Time For Rat #3.
You make videos for on the most unique stuff and they’re all great. Can’t wait for the every block in minecraft ranked at 300k
Your edits are gold. How do you contain so much funny 🔥
happy mar10, luig10, war10, and waluig10 day
I don't think that's how that works
ah yes, my favorite characters, luigio and waluigio
I love luigio and waluigio
“What’s the matter, scared?”
FYI the cut side taunt for Samus that was in Smash 64 and Melee is a reference to Super Metroid art where she has her left hand on her hip and her Arm CAnnon resting on her shoulder (kinda like that pose where a swordsman has their sword resting on their shoulder). This pose is also one of Samus' victory animations sin Melee but the pose is an iconic one for her so I have no idea why they cut that taunt to replace it with 3 fake taunts. Another example of "Please give characters four taunts in the next Smash game."
Falcon's back-facing down-taunt is him telling you that you're not worth his time. The difference is night-and-day and I will die on this hill.
Rest in peace "YOU'RE TOO SLOW!" and "C'MON STEP IT UP!".
great video. love your content man
I really miss that mario one 😭 Bring it back!!
which one
@jaco8822 the mushroom one from the start of the video. o7 for big mario
melee ganondorf sounds like DIO
Hey I tought the video would come much later, thanks man!
1:59 That edit genuinely caught me off guard and made me laugh and tap the “Like” button 🤣
10:32 Yes you did, you forgot to add Smash 4 in here.
Nah he didn't
20:29 I don't know why but this taunt really cracked me up.
I would rather Sonic's taunt be: "I'm running circles around you!"
19:38 the fact that this is not an smash ultimate problem but a problem on the sonic series itself 💀
I actually like Mr. Game & Watch's up taunt. When I still played the game, I liked to spam both bell taunts alternating between the two.
Im so glad he took the jumpscares out of his videos, I've always been kind of interested in your content, but Im terrified of FNAF lol.
A fond memory of Melee that I have is going into the custom match mode to set all players to giant, playing as Mario, collecting a super mushroom, and then doing the up taunt to make the largest Mario possible.
2:48 imagine dying and they hit you with the 👍
7:39 i think melee's "COM AWN" is the best taunt fox has ever had because of the voice line
I feel like "You're too slow" was cut because it was becoming too much like "The cake is a lie".
Ask anyone what they remember about Brawl, and odds are, it'll be Sonic saying "You're too slow". Ask anyone what they remember about Portal, and odds are, it'll be the graffiti saying "The cake is a lie".
IIRC, according to the dev commentary of Portal 2, the writers at Valve were so bummed out by how memetic "The cake is a lie" became, they completely removed all references to cake in Portal 2, save for one throwaway gag. Ever since that one gag, cake has never been mentioned in the Portal-verse since.
Marth's original down taunt can be roughly translated to "Everyone, please watch me" and has at one point been officially translated to "My prayers are with you" in Fates.
Looking cool odyssey
(Get it? It's like the funny joker taunt)
Looking cool Legeluga_User
(Get it? It's like the funny joker taunt)
Marth's side taunt in ultimate only does one swing before sheathing but now that i've heard two i can't go back
Didn’t know that you can give players a heart attack with Falco’s hidden taunt
Unique ranking man! :)
I love this channel you could rank every single special move
I also like how the kirby up taunt now has the funtionality to remove their copy ability, being a double reference to how copy abilities are lost as an ability star in kirby games
The Mario side-taunt comes from New Super Mario Bros, where he does that animation after taking the flag at the end of a level
ok, mr. game and watch's brawl down taunt looked like he was flipping you off.
What marth is saying in the taunt is “Everyone, please keep watching me!” Which “Keep your eyes open!” Is a decent enough equivalent to. He’s telling you to pay attention.
"I hope they give Cloud and Sephiroth English voices in the next game" That's assuming they'll be in the next game with I find pretty unlikely
Square Enix has mellowed out in crossovers, I think it just comes down to that they expect a DLC representation to boot.
@@LucarioShirona I mean when it comes to DLC characters sure though I doubt they'll be in the next Smash at launch as I bet they'll trim down the roster a fair bit from Ultimate like 40 returning characters at most down from 74
Very interesting. And I agree, Mr. Game & Watch should have his jump taunt rather than 2 bell taunts. I'm surprised you didn't mention Ike though seeing as his voice lines changed when he got his older version and his voice actor changed.
you should do cut idle animations next!
*Hot Take:* I _do not_ miss Mario's old up taunt. It was slow, makes your hitbox bigger, leaves you EXTREMELY vulnerable (making it so there's _never_ a good time to use it), and it doesn't even look that good.
And that’s why you don’t get no bitches that’s right no bitches because of this rude comment get owned son!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool video something glad you final did. But taunt one mist never think of in smash when come frogot stuff. Only thing beat it is stages bet, used to be fighter but newest one have all fighter in it now.
Never knew Mike West voiced Fox in both Smash 4 and Ultimate. His delivery is so different in both games, you can really see his growth as a VA.
I love Pichu’s wacky little dance in the obscure Taunt version.
I think the weird tone of Falco's voice in Brawl is either just hs voicelie's ripped strait from StarFox Asselt, where all the voices sound like there coming through a speaker phone, or it's supposed to be in reference to Lylatese, the gibberish that StarFox characters talk with in StarFox's 1 2 & Command (and in some version's of 64 for some reason)
The amount of times I’ve been yelled at for killing someone as Pit and hitting the “Is that all you got!?”
13:55 HANDS OFF MY WHAT?!
I think Homer the Simpsons would be a great fit for smash brother! For his final smash, he could unleash the "Lisa Swarm"
Please, no cartoon characters. Let Smash stay video-game-centric.
Okay, the new Wolf taunt sparked such a funny moment for me! I was playing Ultimate with my sister when I went to do a taunt, and hearing him make such a strange noise was so funny that we now randomly go up to each other and just go "Nyaaa."
*playing Falco with different taunt*
"Get some-" *down smashes*
This was a fun video idea. Regarding GnW, I think having the two taunts with the bell is pretty fun because they combo into each other. If you do them back to back to back, it looks like he's really ringing the bell. Also the Pikachu segment reminds me of how much worse Ultimate looks than 4 in some places. Pikachu is way less vibrant and yellow in Ultimate and I think it looks bad by comparison.
I always liked using Samus taunt adjusting her cannon before her Final Smash because it looks like she's prepping for a huge blast.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the changes to Fox’s gun-flip taunt from Brawl to 4/Ultimate! Also Brawl Fox had the coolest voice imo
